Towards reform.

This book describes mine safety legislation in Australia and analyses its strengths and weaknesses. It also examines the broader policy questions of how best to design, implement and enforce mine safety regulation. It argues that substantial reform will be necessary not only in setting standards, but also in their implementation, if further improvements are to be achieved.
